Shove pups nose in his poop

[Anonymous]

I've kept my dogs on a strict routine to the point where they wake me up starting at 5:45 ish because that's when they want to be fed. 1st thing in the morning.

Then they all poop.

I keep them in their segregated spaces just because I have 9 animals altogether.

The thing that kills me every morning is that after I put out my largest dog on a lead and bring him back in, his pen mate has already pooped on a pad and if I'm not fast to swipe it up ... the larger dog will automatically snap up and eat the smaller dog's fresh poop.

It's as awful as it sounds like to witness

Shoving the dogs face in the poop is a very old fashioned "method" of training a dog not to poop indoors. It's like physically disciplining your kids, it was done years ago but now we know better.

Your DH just sounds inexperienced with animals. Try a different approach with the dog and give your DH a second chance too.
